I went out for lunch and totally scoffed. I did resist dessert though which is good. I had to estimate cals so will need to be super good for the rest of the day. This feels like a hard day even though I ate a lovely lunch

Just eaten a Ferrero Roche and wishing I hadn't. It was 60 calories and I have plenty of calories left (193 even with dinner logged in), so that's not the issue. It was ok, but just seemed like a waste. Think I'm going to have to get some Green and Blacks dark chocolate in, so I can have a proper treat instead. as well as the Curly Wurlys

Think I have the beginnings of a chest infection but feel borderline. Hope to squeeze out a Jillian but this depends on how I feel after work. Bake chicken wings in coca cola gravy with veggies tonight though!

Delurking to join you all as this is a fun thread! I lost 30lbs last year on Paul McKenna and logging calories in MFP but still have a stone - perhaps more - to lose. I'm on quite high calories in MFP (1800) as I love my food too much and will fall off the wagon if I eat too little (for me). I lost weight on 1800 cals last year so will stick to that for now. I exercise (cardio and weights) 4 or 5 times a week but don't eat back my exercise cals.

I completely over-eat the past week or so as DH was off work and we ate out a lot. But he's back today so I'm getting myself back on track!

Thanks for the kind words chiefs! Hope everyone managing to stay away from the crumble and custard in this horrible snow? Grapes and melons just aren't the same, somehow. Still, trudging up and down the hill to the flat road where I have to leave my car must be doing me some good.

Have lots of work today and am struggling not to reach for the chocolate along with my coffee. Should really being just focusing on writing instead of MNing but so not in the mood. Deadlines, deadlines - argh!

Honestly, are there ANY good points to being short?! I do hope by breeding with a 6 footer I have at least obtained some height for my children!A rather boring day for the DCs who predictably enough have wanted to snack their way through it. I have managed to refrain.Leftover chicken stew for me tonight I think.

Tabby, that is us too. We live in a valley so have v steep climb to main road and a hairy old slipslide down again! I am trying to think of calorie burn.Hi bssh, are you still going to do Paul McKenna?? Intrigued.

Well it's official - small people can't hide in small places. I was asked to hide in the box that our new scales came in and DS4 assured me, as only a 3YO can, that he can see my bottom. And I don't want children's shoes - I love heels. I just want to be tall and thin

And whilst I'm on the subject of those new fecking scales. They are shite. I've gone up multiples of pounds <sobs> but channelling my inner Mo. I will weigh again in the morning before I make it official. Fool for getting all excited and trying straight after tea

I'm a short stocky rugby player too - except I'm actually a hockey player and my thighs are something to behold. I could crack nuts with them.
